It might just be wistful thinking, but I pray the Grinch doesn't get to steal your Christmas this year. This season can be very commercial, all about giving and getting with little thought regarding the true meaning, which is the love of God and the ultimate gift of Christ.
I pray that you find a few quiet moments to reflect, relax, and receive his grace.
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year. May God touch your life in a very special way during the holidays.
